- 6061-T6 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B211 Certified
- 45,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Machinability & Weldability
6061-T6 aluminum is a precipitation-hardened alloy containing magnesium and silicon, known for its outstanding versatility. The T6 temper signifies that the material has been solution heat-treated and artificially aged to achieve its peak strength properties. This process results in a material with a high strength-to-weight ratio, excellent corrosion resistance, and good weldability and machinability, making it one of the most widely used aluminum alloys.
As a small profile bar, this 1/2" x 3/4" size is perfectly suited for applications requiring strength without bulk. It is commonly used for manufacturing custom brackets, mounting straps, precise shims, and light-duty structural framing. Its flat, consistent surfaces are easy to drill, tap, and machine for custom components.
